Northern Thailand, 8 Days with Abercrombie & Kent

The north of Thailand presents a wildly different picture of the country. It’s a land of lush forested mountains, winding rivers, tea plantations and rice paddies. The region’s major city Chiang Mai is a cultural centre with temples, markets and a rich craft tradition and a range of outdoor adventures possible nearby. Further north the Golden Triangle is where Thailand, Laos and Burma all meet in a scenery of stunning mountains, fast-flowing rivers and hill tribe villages.
